The Slytherin common room was quite full for an early Thursday evening, but nevertheless they had secured their usual spot on the sofa by the corner: Evan sat in the middle of the trio with his legs sprawled out in front of him, Rita curled up on his left and Dahlia leaning in on his right. It might have been a tender scene were it not for the group's motive; all three were hunched over the journal in Evans lap, quietly tittering away at Rita's latest blast. Rita let out a peal of laughter as she read a particularly infuriated comment from one of the Bones' offspring.
"Any regrets, Rita?" Evan asked, tapping the page.
"Absolutely none," she replied.
"Even if the Death Eaters suddenly start using your list as an official Who's Who of muggle enthusiasts?" Rita waved a hand dismissively and took the journal from his lap.
"Well luckily for me the limelight was stolen by your delightful cousin shortly after," Rita sing-songed. Evan sucked in a breath and began to study the ceiling.
"I am morally obliged not to comment on that," he said. Rita rolled her eyes.
"Is this the part where Evan pretends to have family values?" she asked Dahlia with a grin. "Give it two minutes, he always cracks in the face of gossip. Don't you, darling?" Evan snatched the journal back from her and hastily turned a few pages.
"Oh look, a Hufflepuff fifth is having a dilemma over whether to let her boyfriend feel her boobs," he tried.
"Always yes," Rita said. "Don't change the subject."
